DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0042] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0043] See Figures 1-12 A field replacement test method for a reflector-beam connection device includes the following steps 1 to 10:
[0044] Step 1. Select two quadrilateral reflective surface units 2 that are relatively severely damaged and symmetrically positioned as test objects. For example... Figure 1 As shown, quadrilateral reflective surface units RA880 and RE888, which were relatively severely damaged and located symmetrically, were selected as the test objects. "Relatively severely damaged" means that among the damaged quadrilateral reflective surface units, the damage was the most severe or relatively severe.
[0045] Step 2. Simulate the working conditions of multiple large zenith-angle parabolic surfaces. Calculate the displacement of end shaft 5 (#2) of all quadrilateral reflector units 2 in the sector where the test object is located under different parabolic surfaces (only parabolic surfaces can realize FAST signal reflection to the feed cabin). Preliminarily determine the theoretical width and theoretical height of the gantry 4 of the test object. In this embodiment, simulate the working conditions of 96 large zenith-angle parabolic surfaces. Calculate the displacement of end shaft 5 (#2) of 30 quadrilateral reflector units 2 in the sector where the test object is located under different parabolic surfaces. The displacement of end shaft 5 (#2) includes displacement in three directions: in-plane gantry width direction, perpendicular to the gantry direction, and tilting direction.
[0046] Step 3. Construct the gantry structure 26 according to the theoretical width and theoretical height. Modify the original clamp 3 by constructing the gantry structure 26 to obtain the new clamp 7, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the original clamp 3 of the test object was then replaced with a new clamp 7, and the telescope was put into normal observation.
[0047] Step 4. Record the movement trajectory points of the #2 end shaft 5 of the test object during the test cycle, and create a test point location map, such as... Figure 11 As shown. Simultaneously, the interference between the #2 end shaft 5 of the test object and the new clamp 7 was recorded. In this embodiment, the test period was 4 months.
[0048] Step 5. If the maximum displacement of the test point map is within the simulation maximum displacement range of the sector where the test object is located, as shown in Table 1, and no interference occurs, then the theoretical width and theoretical height meet the requirements, and proceed to Step 6; otherwise, adjust the theoretical width and theoretical height according to the maximum displacement and interference of the test point map, and proceed to Step 3.
[0049] Table 1
[0050]

[0054] Step 9. If the maximum displacement of the test point map is within the simulated maximum displacement range of the sector where the test object is located, and no interference occurs, the theoretical width and the theoretical height are respectively taken as the product width and the product height, and step 10 is executed; otherwise, the theoretical width and the theoretical height are corrected according to the maximum displacement of the test point map and the interference, and the new hoop 7 is re-made, and step 7 is executed.
[0055] Step 10. According to the product width and the product height, a new hoop 7 is made, and the original hoop 3 is replaced one by one with the new hoop 7 to improve the interference problem between the original hoop 3 and the 2# end shaft 5, and to ensure the observation accuracy and stability of the telescope.

[0057] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 , the gantry structure 26 includes L-shaped support rods 12 located on both sides of the stainless steel plate 11, the upper ends of the two support rods 12 are connected with a horizontal rod 13, the two ends of the horizontal rod 13 are respectively provided with a vertical rod 14, and the two ends of the vertical rod 14 are connected with a viewing mirror 15, the width between the two support rods 12 is 350mm, and the height of the horizontal rod 13 is 260mm. By adding the viewing mirror 15 on the gantry, the operator can directly observe whether the 2# end shaft 5 is interfered and damaged on the ring beam 1 during the inspection.

After the first bolt 24 is loosened, the angle of the observation mirror 15 can be conveniently adjusted, and after adjustment, the first bolt 24 can be tightened.
[0059] Further, the surface of the stainless steel plate 11 is provided with the rectangular coordinate system scale line 27, and the origin of the rectangular coordinate system scale line 27 is located at the center of the stainless steel plate 11.
[0060] When the original hoop 3 is replaced by the new hoop 7, the water stains and oil stains on the pipe wall of the ring beam 1 at the hoop installation position are wiped clean to avoid the friction between the hoop and the pipe wall of the ring beam due to wet and slippery reasons, and the fastening force is reduced.
[0061] When the original hoop 3 is replaced by the new hoop 7, the position and angle of the new hoop 7 on the lower chord pipe of the ring beam 1 are adjusted according to the backrest position of the quadrilateral reflecting surface unit 2, so that the two 2# end shafts 5 are respectively located at the center of the supporting plate of the new hoop 7, that is, the center of the stainless steel plate 11, when the reflecting surface is at the reference spherical surface, so as to reduce the interference and damage caused by the excessive displacement of the 2# end shaft 5.
[0062] The observation mirror 15 of the new hoop 7 is adjusted to a suitable inclination angle, so that the maintenance personnel on the horse path of the ring beam 1 can observe the overall situation of the movement of the 2# end shaft 5.
